[Splinterland](https://leofinance.io/@leoglossary/what-is-splinterlands) [Brawls](https://leofinance.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-brawls) are a guild event where you can earn [merits](https://leofinance.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-merits) and [SPS](https://leofinance.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-splintershards-sps). This post serves as a way for me to review how my fights went and as a reminder to sign up for the next brawl. I have missed brawls in the past and it hurts when Gladius cards can now be used in ranked battles using the soulbound summoners. 4 star brawls are rough as the teams tend to be stronger. I am still in the gold league gold foil matches, and it was decent this time around. I got wrecked in my actual fights, but I did do better than last time.

## Brawl Result

I chose the gold foil modern Brawl and got 3 wins. This time, there were 1 free wins because one guild didn't submit a person for my brawl. My rewards for the brawl were 3,000 merits and 44.217 SPS in the 4-star category. My guild ranked 6th place out of the 9 guilds there. I choose to take the gold foil modern brawl because my guild usually doesn't fill all their spots, and I prefer to give my other guild members a chance at the brawls. My guild placed higher than last time, but our total points were lower, and that led to our rewards being lower.

You can find the first match [here](https://splinterlands.com/battle/sm_pXbjVz7U4t8RIR2ZpIzv?ref=jfang003). I won this match because I had the stronger lineup. I was worried about my opponent's magic monsters, but Katrelba and my snipe monster did a great job of killing them off.

You can find the second match [here](https://splinterlands.com/battle/sm_lRx5iDb7s8cfOKR2j3NE?ref=jfang003). I lost this match because my opponent had a stronger lineup. My opponent's ranged monsters were stronger and faster than mine. When you combine that with his summoner for increased damage, there was nothing I could do.

You can find the third match [here](https://splinterlands.com/battle/sm_eK1qF9XwcJFIgp4Uujm8?ref=jfang003). I lost this match because my opponent had a stronger lineup. My opponent just had the stronger cards, and I don't think I would have stood a chance against Kron and Llama.

You can find the fourth match [here](https://splinterlands.com/battle/sm_A7OZTjMaiCWx9UlqZ9FB?ref=jfang003). I lost this match because my opponent had a stronger lineup. My opponent just had the stronger cards in terms of damage and speed.

You can find the fifth match [here](https://splinterlands.com/battle/sm_5iWqmjZUjYu6pSqm9l47?ref=jfang003). I lost this match because my opponent had a stronger lineup. There isn't much to say when my opponent had double demoralize and thorns.

You can find the sixth match [here](https://splinterlands.com/battle/sm_t4tdVbEt4Cu3eSMgVkQr?ref=jfang003). I lost this match because my opponent had a stronger lineup. Those opportunity monsters were too powerful, and I couldn't do much once that bloodlust started stacking.

You can find the seventh match [here](https://splinterlands.com/battle/sm_OmDXqjy4yTV0pNLmE5Lg?ref=jfang003). I won this match because I had the stronger lineup. Once I took out that tank from my opponent. The rest of my monsters were able to clear out the lower health monsters. My opportunity monster also helped quite me out quite a bit. My opponent's damage was too spread out. 


## Conclusion

Doing 8 fights for 3,000 merits and 44.217 SPS is a good reward for the effort. I didn't do so great, at least it was better than last time. I am glad to see that I can still beat lineups with so many leveled up cards if I play my own lineup well. It's too bad that the rewards were lower despite ranking higher. It all comes down to the points I guess.
